Mother and Daughter Bags

Well I got started on a bag for Michaela… and finished it in the same day. Amazing!
Michaela’s bag is a little version of the bag I have been using as a “Nappy Bag” since she was a baby. I bought enough of the lovely oriental blossom print fabric to make a fold-out-Nappy-bag that you could change the baby on. I had a version that I was given with Teddies on it, for my other two babies, and wanted something more suitable for a grown up to carry. I managed to make my version of one of these bags for a friend, but by the time I was ready to make one for me, my stomach was too enormous for crawling around on the floor to lay it out. I ended up making the much simpler bag above, which I can continue to use, now that I no longer need to carry nappies.
I have made lots of things with the oriental fabric, and still have more left (Hooray).
Here is the beautiful lining that we picked out, which we also used inside Amelia’s Reader-Bag.

Do you have a favourite fabric that you have used in lots of projects?
